"Penny" got her name 'cause she's RED and cost me a pretty penny!

Mama hates "the other woman." She'd be happy to see her gone.
She also thinks that guys who name cars are crazy. I name all of the "special" ones (not hers). They all have a personality.

Mine is "Little Suzy" or just "Suzy"

It came to be when I was planning and doing the mild engine build up. Very often when I spoke to someone of the project I kept hearing "That will wake it up" Then there is the song, "Wake up Little Suzy, wake up"
Okay it may be spelled differently, but hey, I can do that.
So there you go. And while not a race car, Suzy did wake up. Now she shines too!

Guess that means Suzy did the old Rise and Shine!



I just call it the "Pacer" don't know if thats really a name but thats how I refer to it

Vette(s): 1972 conv, 4-speed, 350, 200hp, numbers match, rally wheels, war bonnett yellow w/white top. good condition, nice driver.
When we got ours it was charcoal grey/black. I decided it should be the original color since the grey color was a disgrace. WAR BONNETT YELLOW is correct color sooo. My daughter names EVERYTHING, so the bumper car became BONNIE. I do not care what its called as long as it is not derogatory. Seein this ones a "girl" the next one will be a boy. Its also the only one we have so its our favorite.
I really never named mine, but my friend has a yellow 72 vert.........he has a vanity plate Mellow Yellow..........Melissa, you having some fun or what? I'm glad things are working out for you and Jimmy

My wife bestowed the name "Happy" on my corvette. She named her that because I tend to smile alot when I am driving the corvette and driving the car makes me "happy".
There is no substitute for low end torque!
